Due to some technical difficulties, I have made a 2nd scannergram from your enjoyment. This photoshop self portrait takes place in my alternate universe. I am sitting on my rooftop overlooking what I see to be a psychedelic view of outer space. I collect dream catchers, so I began by cutting out the middle section of the dream catcher and added some filters to make it seem cartoonish. This piece deals with perception being the only reality. I am seeing what I want to see in my dream world. My dreams are essentially falling into a black hole which takes the form of a bulls eye which I have made from a selection of a beaded bracelet. I have also added effects to each repeated item. The stained glass hands catch all of my good dreams, and the bad dwell in the black hole forever.
Items Used:
Photo of myself on a rooftop
Dream Catcher
Ceramic Hand catch-all dish
Beaded Bracelet
Glass Mirrored Jewelry Box
